I've been on an anti-police posting thing for more than a few years now. I've had some shitty interactions with police in my life that has driven my empathy and compassion for them down down down lower than a badger's ball-sack.
It is exhausting. I am tired. My anger has been subsumed by a sadness that anger can no longer carbonize, and none of social media has made anything better.
I and others have gotten more brash towards LEO online and irl, and LEO has escalated in lethality.
I am out of ideas. I am out of yelling and screaming and giving the finger to the police.
I agree. But I am without a group of support. And the never-ending inquisitions that the police labeled "investigations" protecting their need to murder, assault, and abuse has driven me to despair.
Even their training admits that "a kill" creates their strongest and best sex of their lives.
And look at how police respond to being asked not to kill so much: like we are trying to steal their erections.
There is no solution except burn it all down. And I cannot and will not do that.
I remember this was really fishy in how the police reported it at the time, and it seemed pretty clear that this was likely. I hoped it could be proven eventually.
I have my doubts that we'll see repercussions for the cops who pulled the trigger, but this is an encouraging development.
The article does include this at the end:
The California department of justice is investigating the case under a law requiring inquiries into police killings of unarmed people.
So maybe there will be justice?

why the fuck does america still have sheriff departments in the first place?
as always, pigs become pigs because they want to kill with impunity. if they wanted to help people they'd have become EMTs or something
Don't forget to stop at Krispy Kreme on the way home fellas. Free coffee for the boys in blue..
That's clear cut murder. For my own sanity I will assume the cops who shot her are in jail.
